A few ideas that I've come up

For SB:
-Springsharp sheet or other preset numerical data as starting point. Another source could be a historical "paper" neverwere
-Fleet auxillary challenge. Its about time to have one
- Conversio or service cycle challenge for all those who like to sperg out variants

For FD:
- TO&E sheet challenge
- Big Missile (SAM or ballistic) and supporting carriage
- 4-4.5 gen Light fighter (max 60 kN dry thurst/ 14 MTW)


For weapon/Gunbucket:
- Interwar medium/light MG
- Weapon internal mechanism challenge (for gunbucket or even bigger scale)
- OICW type of multi-munition weapon system

For Soldierbucket:
- More spesific timeframe infantry challenge
- Animals (either real or fantasy)
- fantasy/alien race description/anatomy study challenge

All three of my challenge ideas were done in the end! Go me I guess.

I guess I'll provide my oracle insight for more stuff I want to see.

-More GB challenges. I was thinking a GPMG challenge to get me and probably others to get off my butt and draw a machine gun in GB.

-A sword challenge in GB? I know that swords have been done in GB before and maybe it can be paired with or separate from an armor challenge in soldierbucket?

-Monitor challenge in SB? Auxiliary challenge? I generally want to see more "out of the box" SB challenges because I think those types of things are interesting, though they may not generate as much interest.

For SB:
Battleships. Been a while since we had something about that.

For GB/WB:
Honestly i'd prefer weaponbucket, as its better for drawing bigger weapon system without being tedious. Something like a machinegun lineage would be interesting

For Soldierbucket:
Tanks or some different AFV (tank destroyers, SPG's, etc.). They look great, they are pretty fun to draw and the drawings provide a great amount of details one could go in when designing or drawing a real vehicle.

For SB: Smaller treaty battleships/battlecruisers. 17 500/23 300 tons ranges, with appropriate margin for cheating the treaties.

this time around I don't have that many suggestions but here I go anyway
FD:
1950s 60s high altitude reconnaissance aircraft
21st century strategic bomber
some kind of trainbucket challenge

SD:
1950s guided missile battleship rebuilt or new build
cold war nuclear guided missile Cruiser
1970's nuclear-powered supercarrier

Also I can certainly agree with Aiseus that more GB challenges would be nice, the one I would like to see the most is a modern assault rifle challenge, or maybe a light machine gun challenge.
Work list: 1. various pre-1900 Zipang ships 2. Some protected cruisers and other miscellaneous projects

I support Golles suggestion of an interwar LMG for weaponbucket. That or the internal operating mechanism. I was actually thinking about that the other day.
